It contains ascorbic acid (an antioxidant to protect cells from free-radical damage, absorb iron, create collagen), B-complex vitamins (keeps skin and blood cells healthy and convert nutrients into energy) and an amino acid blend (to enhance athletic performance, decrease muscle loss, burn fat more quickly and improve metabolism speed)
These higher doses support collagen synthesis, which relies on vitamin C for two key enzymes: prolyl hydroxylase and lysyl hydroxylase
This finding was later combined with research by Joel Habener and jointly published in JCI.11 The team of Jens Juul Holst at the University of Copenhagen in Denmark published a report in FEBS Letters, reaching the same conclusion in January 1987.23 In December 1987, Stephen Blooms team confirmed in a Lancet paper that GLP-1(7-36) is a human intestinal hormone that stimulates insulin production in the pancreas and lowers blood sugar.24 GLP-1, used for treating diabetes, is quickly broken down in the body, requiring high doses that can cause side effects like nausea
